Ellerslie International Flower Show 2007 - Scarecrow Competition
Once again, the Trust invited primary and intermediate schools throughout the Manukau region to be creative and design and build a 'scarecrow' for the competition at the Ellerslie International Flower Show.
The Ellerslie Flower Show judges were looking for creative and imaginative use of any materials available - recyclable plastics, fabrics, packaging materials - anything was possible. The scarecrows were proudly displayed in a vegetable and were very popular with the hundreds of visitors to the Flower Show.
Teacher and student representatives from the winning schools were invited to attend the special Mayoral Presentation Ceremony with Mayor Len Brown, at the Flower Show, where they were presented with certificates and prize money.
We would like to acknowledge the following schools for all their hard work in creating their 'scarecrows'and helping to make this year's competition such a success.
